Halloween Hijinks

Here it is, already a week since Halloween, and I’m only now getting around to this entry. We had a good turnout this year, but we had way more than enough candy. Two years ago we had a more modest amount of excess.

I enjoy decorating the front porch for Halloween. Some webbing, simple lighting, a fog machine, and creaky old radio shows make a nice effect. One kid, about ten, who came to house said he remembered coming here “when he was little”, and he always liked the way the house looks. Eric took Bismo’s son out again to make the rounds, and he wore the same getup as last year, but with a new mask.

Eric was goofing around with the digital camera and came up with a fun little video. He designed the pumpkin faces and I carved them. The old time radio program “The Whistler” is playing. Trivia note: Gerald Mohr, who says “likes to do it the hard way” was the voice of Reed Richards in the 1967 Fantastic Four cartoon. I posted one at this link, and you can also hear Mohr’s voice here. You’ll even find a picture of him on the blog. How did so much of Gerald Mohr get on DogRat.com?
